What Customers Are Saying
Most customers praise these bits for sharp performance, clean drilling in wood and metal, and excellent value. However, many report sudden breakage under light pressure or in harder materials, with bits snapping or shattering unexpectedly—sometimes on first use. Some note brittleness in impact drills, while a few mention they lack strength compared to competing brands. Despite durability concerns for some users, those without breakage issues find them reliable and affordable, making them a worthwhile purchase for light to moderate tasks.

Absolute Trash
Would Not RecommendSanpped from few uses on simple cabinets wood. Plus it's not straight, the bit is crooked. I would like to get a refund. I'm never buying anything Kobalt again.

Would RecommendWent throug the metal like butter. My old bits sucked.
Eh drill bit I would pass
Would Not RecommendMaybe I was using it too hard or it didn't quite fit the different drills I used; but I was getting the same issue where the part in the drill (silver/grey portion) would spin with the drill but the actual bit would not spin/drill.

Drill bit
Kobalt brand drill bits are great for drilling into metal.
From 9_SLASH_64-in 3-1_SLASH_4-in Titanium coated HSS Jobber length Twist Drill Bit Verified Purchaser
After trying other brands of drill bits, and finding out that don't drill into metal very well, I discovered that the Kobalt brand works best for metal drilling.
